 +05] WHERE DO I UPLOAD MY VHOST'ED HTML?
  
 +     When you run 'mkvhost' for a particular domain, you are
 +     told that your files reside in $HOME/html/domain.xxx
 +     for that particular domain.  These follow the same 
 +     conventions as any other directory .. you can create 
 +     .htpasswd/.htaccess files, index.html et cetera
 +
 +     Also, its important to note if you want to host say
 +     'foo.com' and you also have a CNAME such as 'www.foo.com'
 +     you'll see that 'mkvhost' makes both a 'foo.com' and
 +     a 'www.foo.com' directory.
 +
 +     This is fine if you want content to differ .. however,
 +     you probably don't.  In order to help you by not having
 +     to duplicate your storage, you can make one of the directories
 +     a symbolic link by doing the following:
 +
 +     $ cd $HOME/html
 +     $ rm -rf www.foo.com          # be sure its empty or backed up!
 +     $ ln -s foo.com www.foo.com
 +
 +     Now you can put all your files in the directory 'foo.com' and
 +     they show up when you access 'www.foo.com' as well as 'foo.com'
